Missing in Seattle--Can You Help?

From Mark Steyn, 10 MARCH 2011http://www.steynonline.com/A NOTE TO OUR READERSMichelle Malkin is a good friend of this site and was a big supporter during our battles with Canada's "human rights" commissions. Now Michelle could use some help. Her 18-year old cousin went missing in Seattle at the weekend, and her family is desperate to find her. If you're in or around the University of Washington and you know anything about her whereabouts, please help.

SEATTLE — The photo above from Marizela’s friends/family shows the tattoo on her left inner arm that reads “lahat ay magiging maayos” — a Tagalog saying for “all will be well.”

Thanks so much to all of you for your prayers and for helping to spread the word across the Internet.
Thanks to many friends/contacts in the Seattle-area media who covered her disappearance over the past few days, including:

Marizela still hasn’t been heard from or seen by family since Saturday.

The Seattle PD says it has probable visual identification of Marizela boarding the Othello train near her home in the Rainier Beach area and commuting into the University District during the noon hour on Saturday. A Seattle PD detective from the missing persons bureau says there’s evidence that she was last seen Saturday afternoon at the Safeway in the city’s University District on 4732 Brooklyn Ave NE between 1-2pm. At some point during that time, purchases were made on her debit card.

The police say they “have no reason to suspect foul play” at this point. There are several reasons and grim evidence that cause the family to remain gravely concerned about Marizela’s safety, health, and well-being. As mentioned yesterday in the flyers the family is handing out, Marizela was taking anti-depressants and has been for some time. As my family gets on the ground to continue the search for Marizela, please continue to get the word out to anyone in the Seattle-area you know. Here’s the updated info on her last known location/time. If anyone saw or talked to her in the University District Saturday afternoon or has seen her since, please contact law enforcement ASAP:
